Chapter 1258 First Steps
The girl from Sichuan was in a rather miserable state at the moment. Her hair was a mess, and one of her slippers was missing, presumably taken by a 'fervent' fan.
Of course, there are differences among die-hard fans. Some people's die-hard fans greet each other with "Brother, you're so good!" but Li Shiya's fans always say things like "Brother, you smell so good!" or "Brother, I need to ask you a favor!" or "Garlic Sprout Hero, get lost!"
The only similarity might be their intense passion, one emotional and the other physical.
In a short time, the Sichuan girl not only sold out everything in front of her stall, but she even lost equipment herself, which shows how terrifying she was.
"Why isn't it raining today?"
Looking at the weather outside, He Xiaoyue couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing this, Lin Mo laughed and said, "It can't rain every day, can it? It rained yesterday, and the temperature has dropped quite a bit. Besides, it's cloudy now."
"Maybe it's not raining here, but it's raining in the city?"
Upon hearing this, Miss Yuan couldn't help but say, "Speaking of which, shouldn't we be using English at this time?"
"Are you taking Mongolian or Japanese exams tomorrow?"
The class monitor shook his head: "Sister Yuan, what you're saying is all outdated. Now the college entrance exam doesn't differentiate between arts and sciences anymore, so in the past, preparation for the college entrance exam was only two and a half days, but now it's a full three days. It feels like such a big change. How come I missed this good time!"
Upon hearing this, Director Wang comforted him, saying, "It's normal. I've always been like this since I was a child. When I graduated from elementary school, the dilapidated buildings of the elementary school were demolished and a new school was built."
After I graduated from junior high school, the road in front of my house was repaired. I no longer got covered in mud on rainy days, and my bicycle wheel wouldn't get clogged with mud and stop turning.
After the college entrance exam, the high school built a new exam room, and even went through a textbook revision. The high school also reinstated the two-day weekend system. In short, I didn't experience a single good thing during my time at school.
"Luckily, our university is a four-year university. If it were a vocational college, I'm afraid the school would upgrade to a four-year university the year after graduation, and that would be so tough for me."
Everyone:
It has to be said that Director Wang's luck is truly remarkable. Of course, it's not that their school can't be upgraded to a top-tier university, it's just that it's quite difficult, and they haven't reached that level yet. Director Wang doesn't need to worry about that.
"But speaking of which, Chuanzi, once you start updating your graduation videos, if nothing unexpected happens, there should be a lot more university graduation works online recently," Lin Mo said with a smile.
Everyone was scrolling through their phones. Data for Li Shiya's latest work was climbing steadily. Li Shiya was already very popular, and now, with the college entrance exam and graduation season approaching, it was expected that this work would become a hit.
"It's alright. We've already taken our graduation photos. Even though we haven't received our diplomas yet, it's practically the same as graduating. There are hardly any people living in the dorms anymore, so let them send them out."
The Sichuan girl said nonchalantly.
Meanwhile, his comment section was also bustling with activity.
[Oh my god, it has to be Li Shiya again! She actually used the toilet to attend the graduation party!]
[College classmate: Exciting~~]
[By the way, I spotted Hand Bro! They really are classmates!]
[Not only is it "Brother Shou" (手哥), but all his employees are his classmates!]
【Damn, why did you have to make me cry at the end? Is this your persona?】
I graduated ten years ago and haven't seen my classmates since!
What was that saying about buying apricot blossoms and then not being able to learn to swim?
[Get lost! That's called "Wanting to buy osmanthus blossoms and share wine, but it's not like the carefree days of youth," what the hell do you mean, "can't learn to swim!"]
Although Li Shiya's account is known for its abstract style, the works she creates under the theme of graduation naturally resonate with netizens.
Especially for those who graduated many years ago, even now, when they think back to their college life, they probably can't help but laugh out loud.
Because those years in college are probably the most carefree time in most people's lives.
Without heavy schoolwork, no financial worries, and with parents to support them, and without a car or house of their own, the pressure on these children is that all they think about every day is what to eat and where to go.
Those who can afford it can find a partner; those who can't can go to internet cafes to play games. Life is so pleasant! But happy times always pass too quickly. Many people haven't had enough time to enjoy it before graduation is just around the corner.
Thinking back on my university years, it seems I never did anything meaningful, which is what makes me feel regretful.
"I don't care, I'm thinking about going to Mozai's hometown for barbecue right now. I have to say, the countryside is so much fun. When I'm old, I want to go to the countryside and build a little courtyard too," Miss Yuan said excitedly.
Lin Mo laughed and said, "Soon, just wait one more day. After my mom finishes proctoring the exam, we'll go back and take a stroll. Sister Yuan, don't you like fishing? There are fish in the river near my hometown. We can even cut off the river to collect the fish, though they're all small river fish, which we can fry!"
"Deep-fried is good! As long as there's something to eat, anything is fine. Free-range chickens, geese, whatever, get some of those. Sister Yuan loves them!" Miss Yuan started ordering.
Lin Mo said it was no problem, as such a small issue was easy to resolve.
The group stayed in the studio until 5 p.m. The students finished their second day of the college entrance examination. All the entertainment venues in the city were closed for the past two days, as if a lot of fun had been lost, and even the pace of life had slowed down.
Before returning to the dormitory, Lin Mo pulled Miss Yuan aside to find a cold drink shop for a drink. "So, what's the matter that you called me out alone?" Miss Yuan asked, sitting on a chair in the Snow King shop.
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo put on a fawning smile and rubbed his hands together, saying, "Sister Yuan, you're too kind. There is something I need your help with!"
"Oh? Tell me about it, let me see what's going on!" Miss Yuan said.
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo took out his phone, opened Lao Zhao's WeChat Moments, and began to mutter his own request in a low voice.
Miss Yuan's gaze shifted from initial curiosity to disdain. After a long while, she said impatiently, "Is that all?"
"Yes, that's all. It's just that it's too difficult for me. But Sister Yuan has connections. Don't worry, I've prepared all the information for Lao Zhao. I'll leave the rest to you, Sister Yuan!" Lin Mo said, clasping his hands together.
Miss Yuan rolled her eyes at him: "It's not difficult, but is it really necessary? Wouldn't it be better to just buy a new one?"
“No, no, Wang Chuchuan and I have discussed it and we still think this is the best way,” Lin Mo said, waving his hands repeatedly.
Miss Yuan sighed and said, "I understand, I'll take care of it for you, but you'd better treat me well when I visit your home!"
"Don't worry about that. If all else fails, I'll stew the Sichuan peppercorns myself!" Lin Mo laughed.
The two then finalized the details before returning home. With Miss Yuan's help, Lin Mo could finally relax.
That evening, Liu Ruyan didn't come back; she went to stay with her cousin Su He. Lin Mo was happy to have some free time, and the four of them returned to their dorm and continued playing games together.
That night, the four of them played until very late. Lin Mo didn't talk to Lao Zhao about staying any longer. He knew that Lao Zhao had made a decision, and it wouldn't matter if he said anything.
The next day, the four of them slept until noon. Everyone says that college students have messy schedules, and for this group of bored people living together, staying up late became the norm.
He's only been back for a few days, and his routine is already starting to revert to what it used to be.
The next day, after the group got up, Lin Mo took advantage of their inattention and put a palm-sized car robot with a screen into his box.
That's right, this is the product that appeared on his shopping page today. It's very powerful and even exactly what he needs.
Then he looked at Lao Zhao and said, "Let's go eat in the cafeteria. I'll buy you two clothes this afternoon. You can stay at my place for a couple of days tomorrow."
"I'm fine with anything, but you don't need to pay for it. I have my own money, I can just buy a couple of cheap items," Old Zhao said with a smile.
These past two days, everyone has spent a lot of money on him, which he has seen. Although he knows that Lin Mo and Chuan Mei are not short of money now, he still feels embarrassed.
Hearing this, Chuanmei rolled her eyes at him and said, "What are you talking about? Lao Mo has a girlfriend, so he can use his money. I don't have a girlfriend, so who else would I spend my money on if not my brothers?"
You have no idea how much I earned last time! I can't spend it all, I simply can't spend it all! Don't try to take it from me! Today, all expenses are on Mr. Li!
The Sichuan girl is very generous. After all, people who have been with Miss Yuan for a long time are rarely stingy, especially since the Sichuan girl earns a lot.
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo and Director Wang both gave a thumbs up and exclaimed in unison, "Chuanzi is awesome!"
After a quick wash and change, the group headed straight to the cafeteria to eat with their juniors. None of them felt like they were about to graduate, since the school never lacked students.
"Director Wang, call the squad leader and the others later and tell them to prepare their changes of clothes and other necessary items. We'll leave tomorrow morning!"
During the meal, Lin Mo began making arrangements, and Director Wang nodded upon hearing this: "Okay, I'll contact them right away!"
After the four of them finished eating, everyone took Lao Zhao to the shopping mall next door to start shopping and changed his clothes inside and out.
Over the past few days, with the help of traditional Chinese medicine and their companionship, Old Zhao's energy and spirit have noticeably recovered compared to a week ago.
In the afternoon, Liu Ruyan also returned a little early to collect the things she needed to take back the next day, and everyone was in high spirits.
As 5 p.m. approached, the graduating class of this year cheered collectively, and students rushed out of each examination room.
The National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao) is over!
They were about to embark on a new life. The four of them watched the examinees rushing out of an examination hall. Lin Mo couldn't help but sigh, "It's so good to be young. Although we're not old, it seems like a long time ago when we think back to the day of our college entrance examination!"
Upon hearing this, Old Zhao couldn't help but laugh and said, "But what they don't know is that their life progress is 20% complete, the auxiliary system has terminated, the difficulty has increased, the special campus character of twelve years is 100% complete, the parents' companionship is 80% complete, the complete map has been loaded, they can explore freely, achieve the achievement, and are just starting out."
All we can do now is wish them good luck, right?
Upon hearing this, the four exchanged glances and couldn't help but smile at each other.
Only those who have been through it all truly understand how accurate this statement is.
Since graduating from high school, although the map has become larger and I can go wherever I want, the difficulty has also increased. My parents' company has really covered 80% of my needs. Although I am not completely independent in college, I can only go home during the winter and summer vacations each year.
After graduating from university, they may only be able to go home to visit their parents at the end of each year. Different stages of life bring different experiences, but your parents will gradually withdraw from your life.
